Professor Twain Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 OK, I finally got my photos up on Photobucket. Here is my collection of vintage ash trays. The first was a gift from Mrs. Twain, she found it in a local thrift shop. It is a Mack Truck item, these must have been given away by salesmen, I imagine. Shown with an 06 Cohiba Piramide, a generous gift from a Board member, review to follow. the next one is also a find by Mrs. Twain. It is marked as "sterling on bronze". The sterling figures are a bit worn but look like two dogs playing tug of war. shown with a Dip 4 for scale. Here is one, silver plated, that I got on Ebay, again shown with a Dip 4. THis is a little bird with a wishbone. Another Ebay find. This one is of special interest, it was made in Florida by Royal Hickman. I believe it is from the 1950s. The turquoise color has an interesting shine to it that does not show up well in the photo. This has become my day to day ashtray, I can leave it outside and it does not tarnish, and it holds a lot of ash. Finally here is another Mrs. Twain find, it has an Egyptian theme. There are a lot of antique/vintage ash trays on Ebay. I have bid on some beautiful sterling silver ones but they have all gone over my price range. It is fun to pull different ashtrays out depending on what I am smoking, my mood, and how many people are joining me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Wow those are some nice trays. Rob sent me a garish Trinidad POS one year and it does the bulk of the work. The reason I call it garish is that is what he wrote on the bottom of it. It say's "we finally found a garish ashtray that fits your personailty". Thanks wanker king.;-) My favorite tray at the cabin is a half of a fresh water mussell. Unique but fitting of the outdoor experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I use is the Smokey Herf cooking bowl ashtray with 6 cigar stirrups. It is the only really "practical" cigar ashtray I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
